About this property

Welcome to 5617 Briercliff Road, a spacious Fountain City home filled with natural light, flexible living spaces, and an extensive list of thoughtful improvements. Set on a beautiful 0.46-acre lot surrounded by mature trees and lush lawn, the home is located just one street from the scenic Dogwood Trail and offers a peaceful setting with exceptional convenience. Three tall picture windows fill the main living room with sunlight while framing views of the mature landscaping and expansive front yard. Original hardwood floors extend through the living room, hallway, and bedrooms, adding warmth and character throughout. The home features three spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including a comfortable primary suite with generous closet space and a beautifully remodeled bath featuring a tiled walk-in shower. At the heart of the home, the dining room is anchored by a striking stone fireplace and opens directly to the kitchen. Granite countertops, a coordinating stone backsplash, tile flooring, freshly painted cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances create a bright, welcoming space ready for everyday living and entertaining. Two additional living areas--each with its own exterior entrance--provide exceptional flexibility for a home office, den, recreation room, studio, or separate gathering spaces. Outside, the covered front porch features built-in planters ready for the gardener's touch, while the recently replaced back deck overlooks the large, fenced backyard. The exterior storage shed and kitchen appliances convey, making this home truly move-in ready. The sellers have invested extensively in the property, with recent improvements including new flooring in three rooms, a radon exhaust system, a comprehensive crawlspace update with a vapor barrier, dehumidifier, condensation pump, pest-exclusion screening, and radon-mitigation piping, plus a newer back deck, gutters, HVAC system, and roof. Additional improvements include the remodeled primary bathroom, chimney masonry repairs, added crawlspace supports, privacy fencing, and substantial professional landscaping and hardscaping. Transferable warranties are available for the Owens Corning roof and crawlspace dehumidifier. All of this is approximately 12-15 minutes from downtown Knoxville and 15-20 minutes from the University of Tennessee, depending on traffic. Closer to home, vibrant Smithwood Corner is only minutes away, offering Wrenhouse Bakery for locally made coffee and treats, Pratt's Country Store, Fable Hollow, National Fitness Center, and Sweet P's BBQ. With its established character, meaningful updates, versatile floor plan, and convenient Fountain City location, 5617 Briercliff Road offers the space and comfort to grow into and enjoy for years to come. *Buyer to verify square footage.
